From flickr, via...THE DEVIL. Either that, or it's from a Google cafeteria in New York. Apparently they serve Krispy Kreme bacon cheeseburgers, a.k.a Luther Burgers.

The best comment I have read on this: "It looks like something Homer Simpson would eat.

[Slings and Arrows]

Just looking at that picture made my arteries harden.

[wastedyears]

That’s one of the most disgusting non-bodypart food items I’ve ever seen.

[I still care]

I just watched a show about fried food places where they haven’t changed the hamburger grease since 1912.

I bet you think I’m joking.

They actually insure the grease and lock it down at night.

[MississippiMan]

OMIGOSH. They took two of the most wonderful foods on Earth and made them disgusting!

Eat one of those and your heart will literally leap out of your chest, Alien style, and go looking for a better body.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Can they add pickle?

[clee1]

Uber-nasty!

[forkinsocket]

LOL ewww!

[Califreak]

Yuck!

[r_barton]

Paula Deen has a recipe for something similar on the Food Network website. "The Lady's Brunch Burger".

They lock it down so it won’t get up and leave...

Burger grease just like Grandma used.

[shibumi]

I gotta know!

Where??? (I’m hungry already just thinking about it.....)

[PowderMonkey]

Uh-oh...note to self: get those stents reamed out again. I’m having a 2nd heart attack just looking at it.

Why couldn’t they just have their bacon cheeseburger on a regular bun and save the donut for dessert? Talk about screwing things up! It’s kind of like pouring your coffee into a bowl of cereal.

I did have Beer-ios one morning in college.... the milk was bad, and beer was the only liquid in the apartment

Here, let me fix this...

"It looks like something Homer Simpson MarkL would eat."

Everything's better with bacon!

I just watched a show about fried food places where they haven’t changed the hamburger grease since 1912.

I saw that same show... It was dark brown, and they just keep adding more... One other thing about that place... They DEEP FRY their hamburgers in that (nearly) 100 year old grease!

OK that’s just ... irresponsible.

Paula's food makes me vomit. I watched her put an egg on a hamburger once and felt sick all day.

[Vaduz]

Can they add pickle? nope sorry pickle can only be added to the spam peanutbutter onion samage.

[Notwithstanding]

German snack-bars serve something similar called a frikadelle. Its a hamburger (seasoned like meatloaf) that is deep fried. Even worse: they pre-cook them and then after you order, they dip them back in the hot grease to fry again to warm them up for you.

[Tanniker Smith]

I like cheeseburgers, I love bacon, and Krispy Kremes are pretty good stuff ...

but NO
doesn't look appetizing in the slightest.

[Proud2BeRight]

Great. Now I have to figure out how to clean the vomit from my keyboard.

It’s called Dyer’s, in Memphis. They showed them frying. It’s terrifying just to look at it - and I really LIKE greasy food. I found this comment on a blog:

“Dyer’s Hamburgers in Memphis TN featured on Food Network cooks there hamburgers in a skillet with ancient grease. When they moved from their old location, they actually had the Memphis Police Department escort the grease in a padlocked trash can to the new location.”

Egg on a cheeseburger is big around here. Texas Tavern in Roanoke Va is famous for it.

[Trailerpark Badass]

We take eighteen ounces of sizzling ground beef, and soak it in rich, creamery butter, then we top it off with bacon, ham, and a fried egg. We call it the Good Morning Burger

[Biblebelter]

Looks like something you might find at a county or state fair alongside the vendor selling fried Snicker bars.

[mware]

I watched Fox & FRiends this morning. Steve started to eat one. Said it wasn't that bad.

They also said it had 1000 calories.

[TexanToTheCore]

I prefer Dunkin’ Donuts cheeseburgers, thank you.

</Some one has to do it, might as well be me>

[wastedyears]

Chestburster!

[Danae]

Thats just nausiating

Doctor Oz, would have a field day with this dish./Just Asking - seoul62.........

I guarantee you that this will be one delicious taste treat. And, no, it’s not an unhealthy food. Everything in it is something the body needs to meet its daily energy needs. Of course, just one will probably meet about half the energy needs for a grown man, so moderation is the key.

[Grizzled Bear]

Most of the places I’ve seen frikadelle have served them cold. My wife makes them but serves them hot with Jaegersauce (Mushroom Gravy).

[Grizzled Bear]

I hope that’s served by a ER Nurse!

[RichInOC]

Good Lord. And I thought that chicken-fried bacon was decadent.
